We wish you a healthy, happy 2019 full of big PRs, personal growth & love! Thanks to all of you for making CFM an amazing place to train since 2012. We look forward to many more amazing memories with you!

We’re closed for Christmas Eve & Christmas Day

Enjoy the time off with loved ones. Do some yoga, do this workout routine at home OR hit up a Holiday Travel Workout (see below). For the next 10 days we’ll be posting Holiday Travel Workouts for you to do on the road…in the hotel gym…in Grandma’s living room…back home in your garage…WHEREVER! We also encourage you to drop in to a local CrossFit Box if you’re out of town over the holidays. Post a pic or video of your travel workout or drop in WOD to Instagram and tag @crossfitmidtown.
